Connolly injury
 
Any update? Sounds like a concussion. I don't even want to think about him being out.

If it is a concussion, then it's from the pounding he took from his teammates after his kr. He was taking some hellacious shots from Sergio Brown and Sammy Morris.

The OL definitely needs him for the playoffs, hopefully he will be ready by then. The OL means so much to the team and Connolly is a major part to that.

I think they said he played some fullback down there on goal line after his KO return and he might have dinged his head while doing that.

I saw Wendell get his ***** pushed in a couple of times in the second half.

Mankins was the real culprit on the OLine tonight. Connelly and a draft pick are the starting guards in 2011.

Agreed. Mankins had a hard time against Raji tonight. He was fine when he was pulling and smashing a LB, but one on one against Raji was a different story.

I haven't seen a lot of GB games, but is Raji this good?

No Raji is not as good as he looked against Mankins tonight. Mankins is good, don't get me wrong, but I think he has proven that he should not be paid as the highest paid offensive guard in the history of the NFL ( or even close ).

Hmm, I dont know hes pretty damn good. Do you think its a coincidence how much better the OL played after his return?

I agree, its not very often, if at ALL talked about Mankins struggling. Mankins was going one on one with a guy almost a guy as big as Wilfork. Wilfork is CONSTANTLY double teamed, as to why the line refused to help Mankins is beyond me.

He deserves that contract imho, he was told to do his job, he did. Then suddenly things changed for the worst and the front office had to change the terms, it played out bad for both sides. The NFL is the culprit here, not being able to come up with a CBA.

If Kazur were here, all we would be talking about how bad the right side of the line is. So I think Mankins just had a rough day.
